The most important thing that I can do as a mom is to instill a love for God in my child. I want him to see the love I have for God and know that it is real. Am I perfect? No… Is life perfect? No… But God is!
I enjoyed the book God is Always Good. It teaches children that through good times and difficult times, God is ALWAYS good and His plans for them are perfect despite this imperfect world. Check out this great description of the book:
A remarkable tool for parents to use for everything from the death of a goldfish to a national tragedy.
A friend who doesn’t keep a promise. A scary storm. A soldier who goes off to war. Saying goodbye to a pet—or a loved one. Every day, children come in contact with scary or sad situations where they can feel helpless and alone. Filled with scriptures, soft illustrations, and sweet, reassuring text, this book will broadly address scary situations and remind children that God is always in control and that He will bring good out of bad things.
God Is Always Good features sweet illustrations filled with animal characters who show how God never leaves His children alone, and we can see Him through the helping hands of others, a hug, a warm blanket, or even a smile. Each spread features a scripture, giving children biblical assurance that God keeps His promises.
Christian parents will love having a biblically based resource, backed up by Scripture, to bring comfort to children during difficult times.
Perhaps my favorite thing about this book is the scripture references that are used with each assurance that is given. It is one thing to have a great book with great thoughts, but it’s another to use THE Book (the Bible: God’s Holy Word) to back up what you are teaching your child… this is something that is important to me and I love that it is incorporated into God is Always Good.
My son and I enjoyed reading this together, and I know it will be a helpful tool as he continues to grow and experience the hurts of life.
